Packers WR Jordy Nelson To Play In NFC Championship Game

Jordy Nelson active for the NFC Championship.

Green Bay Packers wide receiver Jordy Nelson, who is just two weeks removed from breaking a couple ribs in the Divisional round, will be suiting up for today's NFC Championship game against the Atlanta Falcons.

Additionally, Aaron Rodgers and the Packers have learned that DaVante Adams will be active, despite spraining his left ankle and injuring his hamstring during last Sunday's win over the Cowboys.

Jordy Nelson was reportedly limited in practice throughout the week but he has received a shipment of Kevlar sheets that he can wear underneath his pads as additional protection for his ribs.
